Summer Dessert with Coconut flakes, white Chocolate & homemade Caramel-Sauce

 

Tropical summer taste: coconut-ice-cream with tasty white chocolate-coconut cookies. Ice cream and summer belongs together like the wheels to a car. I did think that you can make ice cream only with an ice cream machine. But I found this recipe and it tastes really delicious. To make this homemade ice cream a dessert I add some white chocolate cookies. You can just add the cookies to ice cream, put the ice-cream on the cookies or add some little pieces of cookies to the ice cream (like Ben&Jerry's 🙂 ).

Refreshing, Light and Tasty

At termpertures of over than 30°C I do will happily without hearty dishes. I need in these days some fresh and light food. Watermelons and other Fruits with high water ratio are great and refreshing. The combination with melons and feta cheese is a really tasty contrast between the sweet melon and the salty cheese. Lets add some lettuce, tomatos and a simply but tasty dressing. If you like you also can add some rucola and fresh mint.

 

Ingredients:
(4 Portions)

1/2 (Water-) melon
400 G Lettuce
100 G Tomatos
200 G Feta Cheese

For the Dressing:
1 tsp. Salz
1/2 tsp. Pfeffer
8 tbsp. Balsamico
8 tbsp. Oliven Öl

Recipe
1) Wash and cut the salad

3) Wash the tomatos and quater them or cut them in slices
